I’ve been lurking around in this forum section for quite a while now, and one of my questions is if it’s still worth investing time in smash 64. I’ve played every single smash title, but only play competitively in Melee and Ultimate, but a heavy emphasis on competitive Melee. I’ve excluded brawl because brawl competitive isn’t my cup of tea. I’ve played Smash 64 before, but more towards casual play. I’m asking this question because I enjoy how hitstun is the mechanic of Smash 64, which allows every character to have a combo game. I enjoy the game, but I feel like it’s going to be difficult to adapt to, since there is a smaller move set and only 1 viable stage for competitive play. I’ve had to deal with adapting to newer smash titles, as playing Melee competitively caused me to have a huge emphasis on wavedashing and L-canceling, which you can’t perform in newer titles.
I’m still stuck on whether I should give Smash 64 a shot to maybe play competitively. With the shortage of viable maps and a smaller move set, it’s difficult for me to decide. The smaller cast isn’t a problem for me, because I main Falcon on pretty much every title. I don’t have an N64 controller, so playing the game with a GameCube controller is illegal. If I do decide to play smash 64 competitively, I might have to fork out some money to get an adapter to play the game on an actual Wii and for PC to play online against people.
